fast streaming version: Liu Yifei A woman talks about four men. I thought it was a bloody romance movie, but I didn't expect it to be a breast nodule production movie.
But in essence, this story about roses still explores the ever-changing topics of female awakening and family relationships in mainstream dramas. These topics revolve around one thing: love samples.
In addition, this drama has slightly more discussion points.
First of all, the original novel is very rich and three-dimensional in terms of character creation. The drama version retains most of the character relationships, so it becomes a long drama with a heroine but still a group portrait.
But after all, the original work is already a story in the 1980s. More than 40 years have passed, and some settings of the series have also been changed due to the changes of the times.
Huang Yimei (played by Liu Yifei) is a girl with outstanding appearance and extraordinary academic qualifications. Boys who have met her can fall in love with her at a glance. There are many suitors around her, and even suitors will wait for her directly downstairs of her house. Well, it’s an illegitimate meal in ancient times.
Huang Yimei's family is also very happy. Her parents are professors at Tsinghua University and love each other every day. Her elder brother Huang Zhenhua (played by Tong Dawei ) is the leader of the Institute of Architecture and a graduate of Tsinghua University. This family configuration is far beyond ordinary people.
In the play, two relationships have been arranged for Huang Yimei so far. The first boyfriend is Zhuang Guodong (played by Peng Guanying ), a conceited overseas returnee, and the second boyfriend is Fang Xiewen (played by Lin Gengxin), a man with low self-esteem who is extremely controlling.
Zhuang Guodong is Huang Yimei's first boyfriend. At this period, Huang Yimei had just graduated from college. She showed her innocent side in the workplace and in life. With the protection of her parents and brother, she naturally looked like she was the only one in the world. status.
So Huang Yimei is essentially an independent female image who is confident and dares to love and hate. This can be seen from the fact that she kept changing clothes when she appeared in the first few episodes. She likes to dress up, not to please others, but to please herself.
happened to meet Zhuang Guodong through a chance encounter at work. Huang Yimei, who had never been in love before, fell in love with him at first sight, and they got together naturally.
seems to be a beautiful love in childhood, but in fact, it also contains a mine that can explode at any time.
Zhuang Guodong's biggest problem is that he is habitually hidden. All kinds of problems have to be solved and blamed by Rose after they are discovered. Under his professionalism, there is a strong self-appreciation and satisfaction hidden.
His egoism makes him give priority to his own development in the planning of all things. When dealing with Rose, he always has a set of rhetoric. His weakness is not capable of impressing people. Most of the time, he Send people away.
Even after several years of separation, his self-confidence did not allow him to understand why Rose separated from him.
Rose gave him the most pure and beautiful emotional experience, and what she spent on him was the courage to risk one's life for love.
This gradually became apparent in her future marriage relationship with Fang Xiewen.
Fang Xiewen is knowledgeable and takes care of Rose's daily life, but in long-term close contact, he reveals his strong desire to control.
When they first got together, in order to frame Rose, he ran to Rose's place to work with her. Hearing that Rose wanted to raise a cat and rent a house, he did not hesitate to pay half the rent to let Rose rent above her.
This line was buried very well. In the early stage of contact, on the surface, this man seemed considerate and decent, but in fact, he had many thoughts in his heart, and he was unfolding the big net that trapped Rose little by little.
His character shortcomings are much more obvious than those of Zhuang Guodong. This low self-esteem may have been caused by various blows during his adolescence. Of course, it has something to do with his equally controlling mother.
It is also because of his mother's outdated thinking that Fang Xiewen's views on marriage and childbearing are very different from Rose's.
In a family atmosphere where the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is extremely poor, Fang Xiewen appears to be the one who can stand up and smooth things over for his wife, but in his behavior he still practices his mother's patriarchal ideology.
His machismo is so suffocating that it has reached the point where he wants people to come back into the screen and punch the mother and son hard. He very much believes in the logic of the male being the outsider and the female being the inside, especially when Flying on the Branch changes. After Phoenix, this idea became stronger.
He can say "I raise you" before getting married, or he can say "I raise you" after getting married.
Fang Xiewen's family has a similar feel to He Rui's family in "We Are Not Kind Enough".
A mother's son who was raised by his mother cannot handle the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. He has a good job and hopes that his wife will be a housewife at home and get along with his mother.
The difference is that He Ruizhi is a silent person, while Fang Xiewen is an explosive person.
This actually proves that certain types of people with similar family backgrounds will have a convergence in how they behave, especially when they form a new family.
The only thing I don’t understand in this set of love samples is that Rose, who has studied psychology in depth for many years, has many things on her mind, so why doesn’t she use psychological methods to resist.
In contrast, Jian Qingfen’s courage to resist seems to be more straightforward and concrete.
Similarly regarding inferiority, the current third love sample in "The Story of the Rose" is also particularly interesting.
Compared with the love story of Huang Yimei, Huang Zhenhua and Su Gengsheng (played by Wanqian ) seem to be two men and women of the right age with matching status falling in love, but in fact the logic behind it is more interesting.
Putting the love between these two people into daily life, it can almost score 80 points or even higher.
Su Gengsheng's native family is not perfect either. Her biological mother supports her younger brother, and her stepfather sexually assaults her. She has her own taboos in her heart due to her sensitive personality.
Before meeting Huang Zhenhua, she was a strong woman who was vigorous and vigorous in her career. After meeting Huang Zhenhua, her love cards gradually became clear.
On the contrary, in Huang Zhenhua's stories, apart from being single since birth, some of them are smooth sailing. Coming from a scholarly family, he has a comfortable sense of propriety in front of his blind date, and he did not exert excessive pressure during his brief relationship with Bai Xiaohe.
seems to be a calm traditional "good man", but he has a restless machismo in his heart. In front of his friends, he will criticize each other's behavior, and in the face of his sister's love choice, he will go for the "optimal solution". ".
But he can also be dealt with submissively by Su Gengsheng. Among the love samples that have appeared so far, the story of these two people really makes people jump between trying to make peace and trying to break up.
After all, most people will not use marathon to swear marriage, unless they are Huang Zhenhua.

The interesting thing about Huang Zhenhua in the play is that his machismo can be suppressed because he can accept new ideas and things. He is not like Zhuang Guodong and Fang Xiewen who can make people Instantly disenchanted.
On the one hand, it comes from his Kochi family background, and on the other hand, it comes from the fact that the industry he is engaged in has always been undergoing an aesthetic change with the replacement of the old with the new.
When "The Story of a Rose" was first adapted to the screen in 1986, Huang Zhenhua, played by Chow Yun-fat, was more attractive.
The changes in the movie version are completely different from those in the drama version. The movie version puts the focus of the plot on the love line of Rose, the main heroine. Zhuang Guodong's character also respected the original work and wrote the character who is about to get married, but loves Rose deeply in his heart. 10 year man.
The double role played by Chow Yun-fat and the pseudo-orthopedic literature also cast a layer of mystery on this tragic story.
As mentioned above, on the one hand, the movie version is closer to the creative background of the original work 40 years ago, and on the other hand, the drama version's group portraits are more in-depth than the single-line story. When the movie version of
was released, it became the top-grossing literary film in Hong Kong that year. Just like the splash caused by the drama version, we try to see in these samples different people's views on love in different eras.
Although paranoid love exists in every corner of the world, if literary and artistic works can endure for a long time, they must have their eternal leeks.
But even "Rhinoceros in Love", which was praised by young people more than 20 years ago, may no longer be the "love bible" for contemporary youth in today's life context. From this point of view, is it not a new and old view of love? Of course the
sample has the power to empathize, but in terms of awakening, I think that when the character Rose was born, she was already a female model with "rebellious" thoughts.
In the process of contacting people, she uses her knowledge and vision to try to explore and change the opinions and ideas of people around her. This is the most fascinating aspect of her story.
A few years ago, Wan Qian acted in another life and workplace drama, "A Lady's Dignity". The roles she played in these two dramas seemed to be the same, with a boss who carries the flag and a powerful novice supporter below. Spectrum of professional female characters.
Similarly, this drama also focuses on the storyline of female friendship and mutual achievement. Love and family are important, but it seems that domestic dramas are increasingly shifting the focus of female stories to the portrayal of strong careers. superior.
This is certainly not something that should be denigrated. From the original strong men and weak women to more and more strong women and strong men, it breaks the traditional conservative concept represented by Fang Xiewen that "men are the mainstay." Within the heroine”. On the one hand, this replacement of the old with the new by
brings "pleasure" to the audience. On the other hand, it also uses the mouths of others to express concepts and practice principles that are outside the mainstream but are chosen by more and more people.
Okay, it’s time to watch the divorce drama.
Huang Yimei, I'll support you.
